“Karuppasamy Kuthagaitharar” Meenakshi ready with sexy clothes

Meenakshi, who had done a very homely role opposite Karan in Karuppasamy Kuthagaitharar, enacts a dynamic physician’s role in her upcoming movie Perumal with Sundar C. And her costume was an 8 yard sari. In her first film it was half sari, in her 2nd film it was sari. Meenakshi, think about the poor Tamilnadu youth!

“That is my fate. I actually am not familiar with wearing half sari or sari. My favorite attire is modern clothes and I ended up wearing saris.

The story revolves entirely around the heroine in this movie. Meenakshi deems herself a clear fit for modern roles, so acting in homely roles has always been a challenge for her.

I got the certificate that I look good in a sari but even now I am not confident enough to wear a sari. As far as I am concerned, sari is a very difficult attire,” said Meenakshi as she rushed away to her makeup room to get out of her sari.

Meenakshi is also a busy model besides appearing in films.

Sneha refused a role in Simbu’s film

Sneha said that she expects roles sans any vulgarity as in Pudupettai. Pining for a role similar to the one played by Ramya Krishnan in Padayappa, Sneha said she wished to do a negative role.

Considering her smile to be a plus point, the actress also expressed her desire to do a lovable character with hidden traits of villainess.

The latest buzz is that Sneha had denied an offer to work in a Silambarasan’s movie.

She also managed to surprise a few in the industry when she refused a role in Simbu’s film. When queried, Sneha said, “yes. I did not accept it”. Asked why, she says, “I would rather love to pair him on the screen, rather than playing his aunt”.
